pTab: Propability table

In robCompositions: Compositional Data Analysis

Propability table

Description

Calculates the propability table using different methods

Usage

pTab(x, method = "dirichlet", alpha = 1/length(as.numeric(x)))

Arguments

x	an object of class table
method	default is ‘dirichlet’. Other available methods: ‘classical’ that is function prop.table() from package base or method “half” that add 1/2 to each cell to avoid zero problems.
alpha	constant used for method ‘dirichlet’

Value

The probablity table
